ROMNEY: “I cannot predict precisely what the rate would be at the end of one year. I can tell you that over a period of four years, by a virtue of the polices that we put in place, we get the unemployment rate down to 6 percent, perhaps a little lower.”

Yep, Romney said that if he were elected, and given a chance to implement his bold economic vision, freeing the nation of the scourge that is Obama’s crushing agenda, the unemployment rate would drop to “6 percent” – maybe even “a little lower” – by the end of 2016.

Of course, President Obama defeated Romney with relative ease, leaving Americans with economic policies that helped push the unemployment rate to 5.9% – in the middle of 2014, more than two full years ahead of Romney’s goal.

A Republican congressman warned Americans that President Obama would not be able to adequately protect the nation from the threat posed by the Islamic State in Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS) — the terrorist organization that has taken over large parts of Iraq — because the administration’s policy is being guided and influenced by “Muslim brothers.”

On Sunday, BBC News reported that the U.N. Nuclear Agency had Iran had converted ALL of its enriched uranium into more harmless forms which can be used as fuel for a nuclear reactor, but NOT for bomb-making purposes.

The conversion was part of a deal struck between Iran and six world powers, the U.S., France, China, Russia, Germany and the UK. Iran agreed to the conversion but maintained that it had never had any ambition to build a nuclear weapon in the first place. All of their enrichment programs, they said, were intended to produce material for power plants and medical purposes.

In return for Iran’s compliance with the agreement the U.S. has agreed to unblock $2.8 billion in frozen Iranian assets.

Another report, this one from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), said that Iran is honoring all of its other commitments under the agreement, indicating that they are serious about wanting the diplomatic processes to continue and are willing to make compromises.
